Oh, that's nasty! I knew someone would reference the unfortunate phonetics of that name at some point though.

I'm really digging his work so far.

Yeah, I can appreciate this release somewhat. I really don't care for the combination of Doug's vox with Bruce's riffs though. Just not a good fit, IMO.

In the mail tonight:

SEVENTH POWER - s/t

Tangerine Dream - Nebulous Dawn has arrived!!!!!!!!

Sound of the Blue Heart - Beauty? as well!!!

Dood! That rocks!

I recently acquired a Turkey and Swiss sub from Quizno's...

I saw King's X just over a year ago. Doug had just been hanging out with Bruce in Chicago. They were going to do Supershine 2 and he said it was going to be MUCH better, more variety, better songs, production, etc

In the mail today...

Steve Walsh - Shadowman

Steve's voice keeps getting worse and worse... kinda sounds like a sick David Lee Roth nowadays!

I love this band dood, David Eugene is an incredible artist. I'm looking for more of his stuff, haven't heard the Woven Hand stuff yet.

Thin Lizzy-Black Rose (incredible album, thanks to Ultmetal for pointing it out!)

Waking Ashland- Composure
Glen Phillips- Mr. Lemons
the Moon Seven Times- Sunburnt

The Woven Hand stuff is more piano based. Less bluesy but still incredible. It has a very unique character. Really grows on you. I would recommend the S/T and/or Consider the Birds

AC/DC - Family Jewels (DVD)
CLIVE BARKER - The Great and Secret Show (Book)
BAD BRAINS - Quickness
BLUE OYSTER CULT - Heaven Forbid
HOWLIN' WOLF - His Best
MISFITS - Walk Among Us
THIN LIZZY - Greatest Hits (DVD)
TT QUICK - TT Quick (vinyl EP)

MERCYFUL FATE - M.F.E.P. (3 song comp I made)
SATAN - Court in the Act
VENOM - Antivenin (comp I made)
WARFARE - Two Tribes /Pure Filth

Mostly some new NWOBHM stuff, besides the MF songs.

The Alarm - Electric Folklore (Live) - Reissue with 14 tracks
Pale Divine - Straight to Goodbye (Atlantic Records band)


And so the sun has come back around...

Cool that is very helpful guys

playlist and acquistion is the same


got Priestess at Best Buy for 5.99. This thing is freakin killing me! What a smokin disc!!!! So killer. Nice nod to Sabbath and loads of 70s influence going on there. Fan-freakin-tastic on first listen

The Showdown- Temptation Come My Way
lovin it! Great cover of Carry On My Wayward Son. It was only 7.99 at Best Buy. Great 80s metal rock in the vein of Ratt, Dokken, The Crue et al. It has some more intense moments but the SINGING is so refreshing. And well done IMO.

Anberlin- Cities.... Nice! Very refreshing modern rock with lots of hooks and pop sensibities. This guy has a great, unique sounding voice. It was another 7.99 special at Best Buy but I got the 9.99 version as it had 3 more songs and a dvd. They have the whole album streaming at myspace. Really nice album

Never heard of priestess ... is it the Canadian band?

Yes but they are on RCA and only $5.99 at Best Buy here in the ol USA

Priestess are excellent.

Here some Priestess here
http://www.myspace.com/priestessband

Cool! I'll check them out when I get home later today





(just looking for an excuse to use that emoticon)

Ghosts..

Here is a video interview with the Sunn 0))) guys..

I like Stephen O'Malleys blog/website..

http://ideologic.org/index2.html and then click on the top left button
that says "words" to get to his blog. He always posts cool photos, art,
reviews, etc..

thanks for those links!
I appreciate that

BLUE ÖYSTER CULT - Cultösaurus Erectus
IRON MAIDEN - Dance of Death
THIN LIZZY - Dedication

I realize I may be all alone on this....

xDeathstarx- We Are The Threat

This is some great new school hardcore IMO. I just love the grooves and crunch. SOme of the lyrics are getting the "hell yeah" from me. But it is the first spin for me

I have a guilty pleasure- tough guy core. I know, I know, but I love it.
Throwdown, Madball, Sinai Beach, etc

throw your stones now

Another trip to the record store, less fruitful this time, but I'm digging both of these anyhow:



Brand New Sin - Recipe for Disaster

Immolation - Harnessing Ruin

BLUE ÖYSTER CULT - Agents of Fortune (remaster)
BLUE ÖYSTER CULT - Spectres (remaster)
CELTIC FROST - Cryptic (cdr comp)
THE DOORS - The Doors (remaster)
EXODUS - And Then There Were None (cdr comp)
PANTERA - Cemetery Gates (cdr comp)

BRAND NEW SIN are pretty cool. I don't have any of their cd's, but the
songs I have heard are pretty rawkin..

MERCYFUL FATE - Nuns Have No Fun e.p.
MERCYFUL FATE - Melissa
DARKTHRONE - Hate Them

I'm digging them. I have a friend who really likes them, so I'd heard
the album a couple times before I picked it up. It's about as
accessible as that genre gets, but it's still some good hard rock with
plenty of southern flavor.



Mercyful Fate & Darkthrone =

BLACK SABBATH - Vol. 4 (Castle remaster)
BLACK SABBATH - Technical Ecstasy (Castle remaster)
BLACK SABBATH - Never Say Die! (Castle remaster)
BLUE ÖYSTER CULT - Tyranny and Mutation (remaster)
MARC BOLAN & T. REX - 20th Century Boy: The Ultimate Collection
MOTÖRHEAD - No Sleep 'til Hammersmith
OZZY OSBOURNE - "Crazy Babies" b/w "You Said it All" (radio promo)
STRYPER - The Yellow and Black Attack (remaster)
STRYPER - The Yellow and Black Attack (orig. mix cdr)
STRYPER - Soldiers Under Command (remaster)
STRYPER - To Hell With the Devil (remaster)
STRYPER - In God We Trust (remaster)
STRYPER - Against the Law (remaster)

THE SHOWDOWN- Temptation Come My Way
xDEATHSTARx- We Are The Threat
PRIESTESS- Hello Master
THE SWORD- Age of Winters
WOLFMOTHER- Dimensions
Sircle of Silence- both releases

CRAP!
WRong thread. I meant this for the playlist

I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of some newbies
I am a huge Mike Knott fan and was able to score FLUID, HUNTINGTON BEACH and DOGFISH JONES... cheap!
